Three people are listed for parisc-linux in MAINTAINERS.
My understanding was Kyle would integrate and push patches.
Willy and I would help by reviewing code, testing and misc crap.
I asked if I should ACK parisc specific patches and was told in general
I didn't need to. I will start sending "Reviewed By:" when I feel
I understand what a patch fixes and that it's correct (even if not perfect).

I won't stop you. :)
Based on this posting:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-parisc&m=122726233324164&w=2
you can add:
Review-by: Randolph Chung <randolph@tausq.org>
I trust Randolph - he used to have commit access to the parisc-linux.org
CVS tree when we still used one.
And Helge has been great about fixing stuff - much better than the three
listed maintainers lately.
Kyle, willy, any objection to adding Helge to the MAINTAINERS list
for PARISC port?
I'd rather allow Helge to make a few small mistakes occasionally rather
than watch his parisc specific patches fall on the floor.
thanks,
grant
